| 4 | Java Web Start version of GLI applet using our new JNLP file
|
|---|
| 5 |
|
|---|
| 6 | 1. Follow the instructions at http://wiki.greenstone.org/doku.php?id=en:release:3.08_release_notes#setting_up_a_remote_greenstone_3_server for setting up the Remote GS Server and the GLI applet. This will have generated SignedGatherer.jar in the gli folder.
|
|---|
| 7 | 2. Move the SignedGatherer.jar and the GLIapplet.jnlp JNLP file into GS3's web/applet folder. Edit GLIapplet.jnlp if necessary.
|
|---|
| 8 | 3. Need to associate JNLP files with Java Web Start (jre/bin/javaws). On Windows, create the association in the usual way. For Linux, create a file with .desktop extension (e.g. javawebstart.desktop) containing the content a little further below. Then put the *.desktop file into ~/.local/share/applications
|
|---|
| 9 | 4. Launch the Java Control Panel (jre/bin/javaclp.exe on Windows, ./.../jre/bin/ControlPanel on Linux). Go to the Security tab, set Security level to "High" if not already set. Click Edit Site List, and then press Add to add the host:port that the GS3 will run on.
|
|---|
| 10 | 5. Once the GS3 code is compiled up, start up the GS3 web server and visit http://localhost:8383/greenstone3/library?a=p&sa=gli4gs3
|
|---|
| 11 | In the current version of the code, the GLI applet will load if the browser still supports applets. Otherwise, the fallback text will appear and provide a link to the GLIapplet.jnlp file. Since you should have set up the jnlp file association in step 3 above, you can now click on the GLIapplet.jnlp link and it should first download the jnlp file to a temporary user area (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp on windows) and then Java Web Start will be used to launch this JNLP file.
|
|---|
| 12 | 6. After authorising the GLI to run, the JNLP version of the GLI Applet will eventually run and behave like the usual client-GLI/GLI applet from this point onward.
